HATCHET FEST IS COMING TO SYRACUSE ON JULY 27TH!

Hear ye! Hear ye! On Saturday, July 27th at 4:00 PM, YOU could be part of one of the craziest film fest lineups ever conceived! HATCHET FEST is coming to The Palace Theater (on James St.) in Syracuse, NY and for a measly ten bucks, you will get to enjoy FIVE feature-length flicks. Check out the event schedule below, then put in for that Saturday off so you don't miss out!

Synopsis: Russian troops pushing towards Berlin come across a secret German installation that is creating super-soldiers from the remains of fallen troops. How are the dastardly Nazis doing this? By utilizing the notes and theories of a one Dr. Frankenstein of course!

Hatchet III (2013)

Upstate New York Premiere
Danielle Harris and Kane Hodder
http://www.facebook.com/hatchet3

Synopsis: The third (and final?) addition to the Hatchet franchise has a search and recovery team looking for the folks from the previous film. Naturally things do not go well. Will Victor Crowley be laid to rest permanently in this installment?!

Hatchet II (2010)
35mm - 9:45 PM
Danielle Harris and Kane Hodder
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Hatchet-2/107557219267327

Synopsis: Danielle Harris escapes Victor Crowley's clutches and returns with an army of hunters and mercs to finish off the demented killer. 


Tobe Hooper's Eaten Alive (1977)
35mm - 11:30 PM
(RARE English language w/ Japanese Subtitles)
Synopsis: Before Freddy Krueger, Robert England was the MANIAC in Tobe Hooper's post TCM 1977 film EATEN ALIVE. A killer that runs a hotel by a swamp, murders some of his guests and feeds them to his pet GIANT CROCODILE!


The theater serves snacks (popcorn, soft pretzels, etc.), soda, beer, and wine, and there are numerous places to grab a bite to eat surrounding it (there's a Chinese restaurant, bar, and a Subway all within walking distance). Also, I should note that there MAY be a secret film being screened after EATEN ALIVE, and the event may run late, so plan accordingly!

And to answer your question about why HATCHET III is being shown before HATCHET II... it's because they are getting the digitally projected films out of the way first, before they dig in to the 35MM awesomeness!

Once again, the show is Saturday, July 27th at the Palace Theater and it all kicks off at 5:00 PM. Get there early to save yourself a seat and maybe I'll see you there!
